Opportunities

Intensive, hands-on student-driven workshops take place in between academic semesters at Lehigh’s expansive Mountaintop campus. AAD students have created workshops and partnered with faculty in design-build architecture projects, fashion design, photography, building materials labs, product design and more.

Graphic design students get real world experience in Fusion Studio, a full-service design agency that lets students take on client-driven projects and entrepreneurial ventures across campus. The program provides experience—and enhanced portfolios—that assists students to secure desirable jobs after college.

Students may partake in Lehigh sponsored and affiliated programs to study abroad for 2-week to full year programs, enriching the artistic, visual and historical breadth of their educations. AAD students have recently traveled to France, Senegal, Italy, Uzbekistan, Spain and the Czech Republic, just to name a few.

Additional Student run and community activities of interest to AAD students abound both on and off campus. A few include:

AAD students are also active in seeking internships while they are in college. Our students participate in a wide variety of local, regional, national and international internships. Recent AAD students have held internships at the Museum of Modern Art, Christie’s, The New York Yankees, Sony Pictures, Urban Outfitters, Scholastic Magazine, ABC News, and Michael Kors.
